I thought it was a wonderful book, being very insightful. I just finished Afterburn and was bored stiff. It reminded me of an anal lictacl college book. But of course good o!d plunkett weiners book, 'Burning Man' is truly the coffee table photographic panaramic wiener of them all!

so - first of all: WHERE THE HELL IS BUCKET'S BOOK??? Does anyone know Lamplighter Duke? Can we track him down and get him to send the book on?

Secondly - I was just given 'The Black Rock Desert', by Sessions S. Wheeler (1985), and was *fascinated*. I read it in one night. It's a great history and geography of the region, including Indian wars, the murder of Peter Lassen, wagon trains having one helluva time crossing the playa, and the location of THE BLACK ROCK. There was even a renegade Indian called "Black Rock Tom". He woulda fit right in with us!

dug it. makes me want to give guided historical tours next year...

got the damn name wrong in my earlier post...this is correct.
